The Brits – along with two Canadians and a man from New Zealand – were granted bail on the basis they did not organise the party and have now been allowed to leave the country, although the charges have not been dropped.

Court spokesman Yin Srang confirmed the suspects were handed back their passports and allowed to leave the country as part of the bail conditions.

The remaining three people – one Brit, one Dutch and one Norwegian – were not granted bail and remain in a Cambodian jail after being charged with producing pornographic pictures and material.

All 10 defendants deny the allegations against them, arguing the photos used to promote the pool party did not amount to pornography as they were not nude and only imitating sexual acts.
